If I unlock my 1.0GX 5 door with the remote it immediately locks again. The only way I can get in is by quickly opening the door before it locks again.
I thought the problem was the central locking unit in the drivers door. I can't unlock the drivers door from the inside using the door handle lock. I removed the door panel and the central locking unit to have a look - it seems to have two levers that are geared together and they don't seem to be working properly. When you try to move the lever which is connected to the inside door lock it is very stiff. The passenger door inside lock works fine. However disconnecting the plug from drivers door unit doesn't make any difference. If I unlock the car and it locks again and I unlock it two more times it seems to sometimes stay open but will sometimes relock itself maybe five minutes later.
It is rather confusing - could it maybe be something wrong with a control unit somewhere? When I press the unlock button on the blip key what happens?
Does the ECU feed a signal to a control unit somewhere or is a signal fed directly to the unit in the door? I have a haynes manual for up to 1996 so it doesn't cover my model and the circuit diagrams don't show any connection to a control unit. What other components could be faulty?
Anyone know where the control unit is?
